A new report from CityRealty reveals New York City’s best-selling residential buildings of 2024. Last year’s total sales by dollar amount remained just under $22 billion, falling below the 10-year average of $26.9 billion, likely due to high interest rates and global uncertainties. But the luxury market remained strong, with the majority of best-selling buildings being all new developments, including One High Line and Aman New York Residences, which top the list. As CityRealty notes, the 30 top-selling buildings in Manhattan accounted for $4.4 billion in sales, 992 units sold, and 20 percent of the borough’s total apartment sales by dollar volume.
1. One High Line
500 West 18th Street, Chelsea
Designed by Bjarke Ingels, One High Line consists of two towers that twist away from one another, reducing their bulk and creating a gap for open views of the High Line and Hudson River. Last year, the 236-unit project finally wrapped up construction and celebrated by selling the priciest penthouse in Downtown Manhattan in 2024: a $47 million penthouse.
2024 sales aggregate: $824,978,737
Number of closings: 103

It only took seven sales at Aman New York to be the second best selling residential building in New York last year. Located within the restored century-old Crown Building, the Aman is an ultra-luxe hotel-condo with 83 hotel rooms and 22 upper floor residences. The building notched one of the city’s biggest deals of all time when a penthouse sold for $135 million last summer.
